My experience as a cook at the hostel was truly wonderful! I loved meeting travelers from all over the world, connecting with locals, and enjoying the beauty of nature around the hostel. The job schedule was always clear and respected, which made it easy to balance work and exploration. Riccardo was always respectful, kind, and supportive to all volunteers, creating a welcoming and positive environment. I'm grateful for this experience and would highly recommend volunteering at the hostel to anyone looking for adventure, cultural exchange, and a great team to work with!

Had a really good experience volunteering here. Riccardo was easy to work with. Everything felt clear and welcoming. The atmosphere at the hostel was relaxed but well-organized, as I was told by a few of the guests during my stay. I met a lot of amazing people. Would recommend to travelers/volunteers. It was great to explore Kutaisi and rural Georgia. It has a lot of interesting natural and cultural variety, as well as events happening throughout the year.

My time at the hostel could've been great, but agreed hours and tasks weren't followed. Additional work was added on my day off, last-minute changes made to meals I'd planned, and there was poor coordination around guests' dietary needs. Despite guests praising my cooking, lack of communication and added duties made the experience frustrating. When I tried leaving a review on WorldPackers, I was marked as a no-show, despite verifiable evidence to the contrary (reviews, messages). Of all the volunteer experiences you could be having, is this the one you want to spend your time doing?

Communication was very difficult as the volunteer didn’t speak English and relied on Google Translate, causing many misunderstandings. He left almost immediately after arrival, then was found hiding on the property without permission. This was unacceptable and unsafe. We had to ask him to leave. We advise other hosts to be cautious, as he did not respect agreements or rules.

PROS -The house is nice and cozy, and the location is great. -Riccardo is flexible regarding shifts and days off. -Olga (manager) is lovely and always available to help. CONS -It's clear from the beginning that no volunteers are trusted. This results in Riccardo micromanaging everyone from afar (he's not in Georgia), even when things are working. -The amount of work is much bigger than what's agreed upon arrival. Innumerable people were surprised that I was a volunteer, not a paid worker. -No privacy: you'll be watched through the cameras often; your bed will be in a dorm with guests.
